^ Really interesting collaboration related to that Formula 1 watch:

http://www.tagheuer.com/int-en/news...ate-a340-what-about-experiencing-zero-gravity

It's official. The Airbus A340-300 owned by the S3 programme, a subsidiary of the Swiss Space Systems aerospace company, will bear the TAG Heuer livery when it starts marketing its S3 ZeroG flights around the world.

Remember that TAG Heuer was the first Swiss watch company to go into space. That was back in 1962, when John Glenn wore a Heuer watch aboard the FriendShip 7 rocket.

Today we celebrate a new, unique experience open to all: the S3 programme will give the public a chance to experience Zero Gravity at an accessible price, from over 15 destinations worldwide. The first flights will take place in Switzerland in September, before being inaugurated in the United Arab Emirates. This unprecedented experience will then be launched in Asia and North America.

Hi everyone. This is my first post on here. I'm keenly awaiting a call from my AD in Swansea about the Monza.

I have my name "down for one" so I hope it'll be soon and in time for our 25th anniversary in August.

Has anyone seen one in the shops yet?

It'll join the latest Heuer branded Monaco I had for Christmas along with the re-edition blue Silverstone I had a few years back.

Thank you to the forum and members for the review links above.

Cheers,

Simon

Hi Simon,
I have also been waiting for mine. As you may have seen, David (@DC) already got his during his visit to the TAG Heuer headquarters a couple of weeks ago. Other than that, I've seen a few Instagram posts here and there, but I am assuming all of those were prerelease.
In any case, I believe we should start seeing them in the wild, any day now.

I think the first shipment was literally heading out the week that I was there...so yes, any day now!

Called in to my AD in Swansea, UK, today. Still not in but I'm first on the list.

It's our 25th Wedding Anniversary on the 9th August so really hoping it'll be in by then.

TH's social media teases the new Heuer-01 variants will become available "soon":

I'm patiently waiting for the all-gray titanium Heuer 01. I just wished they'd reduce the size of the font on the bezel.
With the black ceramic bezel the font size is not distracting, but I can imagine this could be on the full titanium. Hope your wait is not too long.

I tried the 01 at a local shop while in Canada. It dwarfed my small wrist, there is no chance for it to fit without going overboard.
Alas, I was hoping for the black ceramic version.

I like the black ceramic too. Hope to see one in the metal soon!

Does seem to be taking a while for some of the new models to land in store- haven't found out yet the timing with the Heuer-02...
